AutoDome Easy II IP is a rugged, extremely compact, and easy to install PTZ
camera system which incorporates many features typically only found in
traditional high-speed dome cameras. This discrete, high-speed dome camera has
been specifically designed to deliver uncompromised functionality and
performance at a very affordable price for indoor and outdoor applications.

The AutoDome Easy II IP provides direct network connection using H.264 and JPEG
compression and bandwidth throttling to efficiently manage bandwidth and storage
requirements while delivering outstanding image quality. The AutoDome Easy II IP
provides complete network-based control of all dome functionality including
pan/tilt/zoom operation, presets, tours and alarming as well as web-based
configuration of all dome settings.

AutoDome Easy II IP highlights
With a dome diameter of only 4 inches (10.2 cm), the AutoDome Easy II IP is
about 70% smaller than traditional PTZ cameras and 20% smaller than other
compact domes. These compact dimensions make the AutoDome Easy II IP ideal for
discrete surveillance applications.

Despite its compact design, the AutoDome Easy II IP delivers state-of-the-art
technology and features that are rare to most compact PTZ cameras. Its variable
pan and tilt speeds and auto pivot ensure optimal camera control and viewing at
all zoom levels. The high-performance 120x (10x optical/12x digital) zoom
autofocus camera incorporates the latest digital imaging technology with
excellent sensitivity and resolution. With 99 user-defined presets as well as
multiple tour and autopan modes, the AutoDome Easy II IP is not small on
features.

A single AutoDome Easy II IP provides as much coverage as four fixed mini domes
and is priced lower than a traditional PTZ dome camera. The AutoDome Easy II IP
maximizes your security investment by integrating with the entire line of Bosch
video products including variable speed Allegiant matrix switchers and Divar XF
digital recorders, as well as the full range of Bosch video over IP products.

And, the AutoDome Easy II IP is simple to install and use; available with
surface, wall, recessed, and pipe mount options. These mounting options plus the
Outdoor Installation kit ensure that the AutoDome Easy II IP can be mounted
nearly anywhere.

AutoDome Easy II IP System overview

High-performance 120x PTZ colour camera
The AutoDome Easy II IP PTZ cameras have a 1/4-inch colour CCD. With 530 TVL
resolution and sensitivity to below 1.0 lux, the AutoDome Easy II IP Series
offers exceptional performance at a very affordable price. The AutoDome Easy II
IP supports up to 99 user defined pre-positions, as well as 1 preset tour, 2
recorded tours, and 2 auto-pan modes. The preset tour can be programmed with up
to 99 prepositions and a configurable dwell time between positions. The recorded
tours playback up to 15 minutes of any manual camera movements made during the
recording, including the rate of pan, tilt and zoom speeds and other lens
setting changes.

Pan and tilt preset repeatability are accurate to within ±0.1 degrees to ensure
that the correct scene is captured every time. AutoDome Easy II IP delivers
variable pan/tilt speeds from a crawl speed of only 0.1 degrees per second up to
an ultra-quick 120 degrees per second. The dome is capable of pan speeds of 360
degrees per second and tilt speeds of 100 degrees per second between
prepositions. AutoDome Easy II IP provides a tilt range of 0 to 94 degrees, and
a pan range of up to 360 degrees continuous rotation. The patented Auto Scaling
(proportional zoom) and Auto Pivot (automatically rotates and flips the camera)
ensure optimal control.
Ultra-efficient H.264 encoding
AutoDome Easy II IP uses an advanced H.264 encoder to create DVD-quality
streaming video at ultra-low bit rates. Use of H.264 encoding, bandwidth
throttling and multicasting capabilities, minimizes bandwidth and storage usage
to significantly reduce costs. AutoDome Easy II IP supports 4CIF and CIF
resolutions at frame rates up to 25 and 30 images per second (for PAL and NTSC
respectively).
Tri-streaming video
The AutoDome Easy II IP is capable of generating Two independent H.264 streams
with up to 4CIF resolution plus one JPEG stream simultaneously. This profile
allows you to stream high-quality H.264 images for live viewing and recording,
and at the same time, stream JPEG images to a remote FTP server or PDA device.

ONVIF conformance
The AutoDome Easy II IP conforms to the ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface
Forum) specification guaranteeing interoperability between network video
products regardless of manufacturer. ONVIF conformant devices are able to
exchange live video, audio, metadata and control information and ensure that
they are automatically discovered and connected to network applications such as
video management systems.
Intelligence
With built-in video content analysis, the standard AutoDome Easy II IP
reinforces the Intelligence-at-the-Edge concept where edge devices become
increasingly intelligent. This camera comes with built-in MOTION+ video motion
detection. This motion detection algorithm is based on pixel change and includes
object size filtering capabilities and sophisticated tamper detection
capabilities.

As with all Bosch products, the AutoDome Easy II IP has been subjected to the
industry’s most comprehensive and demanding battery of endurance tests such as
HALT (highly accelerated life testing) to make sure it will hold up through
years of use. And of course, it comes with Bosch’s industry-leading 3-year
warranty.

AutoDome Easy II Functions

The following are some of the features that make the AutoDome Easy II IP
Series the perfect fit for a variety of indoor surveillance applications.
iSCSI device support
Built-in iSCSI support allows AutoDome Easy II IP to stream video directly to an
iSCSI RAID array. This enables local video storage just like a conventional DVR
without streaming high bandwidth video across the network. Local recording, or
Recording at the Edge, minimizes bandwidth usage and makes system recording
performance totally independent from network performance.

Network-based control and configuration
The AutoDome Easy II IP enables full camera control and configuration
capabilities over the network. Operators or technicians can control camera
pan/tilt/zoom operation, presets, tours, and alarm management functions
virtually anywhere without need for additional wiring.

The embedded web server lets the installer access all the user settings, make
camera adjustments, and update firmware via a standard web browser.
Device management
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) support facilitates the remote
monitoring and management. AutoDome Easy II IP provides full support for SNMP
v1.
Cost effective coverage
It typically requires four or more fixed dome cameras to provide a full 360
degrees of surveillance coverage. Traditional PTZ dome cameras provide full
coverage, but at a significantly higher cost. A single AutoDome Easy II IP
provides as much coverage as four fixed domes, but is priced lower than a
traditional PTZ dome camera. Not only is your initial investment smaller, but
installation and maintenance costs are reduced as well.
Superior privacy masking
The AutoDome Easy II IP allows for a total of 12 individual privacy masks, with
up to 12 displayed in the same scene. Unlike conventional privacy masks, these
can each be programmed with three, four, or even five corners to cover more
complex shapes. As the camera is zoomed each mask changes size smoothly and
quickly ensuring that the covered object cannot be seen. You also have a choice
of black, white, and blurred characteristics. The blurred option comes in handy
when privacy is an issue, but determining the presence of motion is still
required.
Ease of installation and servicing
The AutoDome Easy II IP has been designed for quick and easy installation; a key
feature from Bosch CCTV products. The dome comes fully assembled and ready for
surface mount applications. Also available are wall, recessed, and pipe mounting
kits which allow the AutoDome Easy II IP to be easily adapted for the individual
site requirements. Available in white or charcoal.
Power over Ethernet
Power for indoor camera models may be supplied via a Power over Ethernet (IEEE
802.3af) compliant network cable connection. With this configuration, only a
single cable connection is required to view, power, and control the camera.
Viewing
View the video on a PC using a Web browser, in the Bosch Video Management System
or Divar XF, or integrate it into another video management system.
